Two weeks ago, I was at the home of a couple who are rabid Democrats and they were discussing how troubling it was to them that Gov. Palin didn't have a passport, had never traveled, yada, yada, yada... then they were trying to think of the name of Obama's running mate... and simply couldn't think of it!

I just maintained a poker face, kept my mouth firmly shut, and petted the cat. Nothing would make me say "Biden"! (They never did recall Plug's name.)

I have dealt with these PHD geniuses also...for over 10 years I was a service rep for a large “BLUE” computer co., get an emergency call, server down, 2 hr response, emergency...walk in the door and see immediately that the damn thing is unplugged..instead of embarassing them, I would secretly plug it in, then do a “laying of the hands’ on the monitor yelling “HEAL! I SAY HEAL! OUT DEMON!” ...and the server starts rebooting...their eyes are as big as pie plates..it was great fun.

I have a son-in-law that has no “education” but he can build a house from scratch, weld anything, if you can name it he can fix it or build it,remodel it, draw the plans, wire it, plumb it— from scratch. And yes I am very impressed with him. Oh yeah- and the sizable pond he built when my daughter and he built their home a few years ago, does not leak. The neighbors do leak.

There are days when I wish all the Palin detractors would go on the Iron Dog Race.

You oughta send this story in to your newspaper. It’s hilarious, and would be a good humorous piece for them.

Some of the stupidest people I have EVER met, by far, are college graduates.

Your customer may be “educated” but she is not intelligent. In fact it seems that she is a kool-aid drinker, and besides that she is brain dead.
